Central Carinthia & Nockberge in summer

The Nockberge, located in the heart of Carinthia, enchant with their characteristic dome-shaped peaks and lush alpine meadows. At its center lies the Nockberge Biosphere Park, which combines sustainable regional development with nature conservation to create a unique natural experience. Numerous hiking trails, such as the Nockalmweg, traverse the diverse flora and fauna. For those interested in culture, a visit to Hochosterwitz Castle is highly recommended. Perched majestically on a 160-meter-high dolomite rock, the castle not only impresses with its fascinating architecture but also offers spectacular views over the Carinthian landscape. The former state capital, St. Veit an der Glan, invites visitors to stroll through its historic city center, which features charming, well-preserved buildings from various eras.
